FIS was established in 1963 as one of the first international schools in Hong Kong. The school offers two streams: the French and International Streams, preparing students towards certification in the French national examinations, the Brevet and the French Baccalaureate, or IGCEs (University of Cambridge examinations) and the International Baccalaureate (IB) Diploma Programme. In 1988, FIS became the first in Hong Kong to be authorised as an IB World School.
Currently, the school is one of the largest international through schools in Hong Kong and welcomes over 2,600 students from Kindergarten/Moyenne Section to Year 13/Terminale, representing 40 different nationalities, across four campuses in Happy Valley, Jardine’s Lookout, Chai Wan and Hung Hom. The school will open a new state of the art eco-campus in Tseung Kwan O in September 2018.
The school’s mission is to provide, together with families, a nurturing, culturally diverse community that inspires our young people to realize their true potential as confident, independent learners and responsible global citizens with moral values and integrity.
FIS Jardine’s Lookout campus welcomes students from Reception Class to Year 5 (International Stream), and Moyenne Section to Cinquième (French Stream).
